15 books you must read if you want to work on Wall Street

One of the most frequent questions I get asked on Twitter is: What books should I read if I want to work on Wall Street?

Mention Ayn Rand or Sun Tzu and you’re likely to elicit the NSFW version of the eye roll. And forget about Machiavelli. A Zagat’s restaurant guide would do more for your banking career than The Prince (although you should still read it).

So, I canvased my library and checked in with a few old colleagues and friends to come up with a solid list.
